May through July 2012 - Cub programs at Wheeler Gorge Visitor Center

Cub Scout and Webelos Scout Award Programs for 2012

Reservations required! Please carpool, as parking is limited.

Because of the popularity (large attendance) of our programs, we do not have the time for each Cub Scout to discuss requirements with the presenter, and as such they will have to fulfill those requirements at the home, pack or den level.

Tiger Cubs, Cub Scouts, and Webelos Scouts may complete requirements in a family, den, pack, school, or community environment. Tiger Cubs must work with their parents or adult partners. Parents and partners do not earn loops or pins.

Where:

Wheeler Gorge Visitor Center
17017 Maricopa Highway (33) - 8 miles north of Ojai
across the highway from the Wheeler Gorge Campground

Bring lunch if attending both morning and afternoon programs. No lunch available at the center.
